478638This is a story written to fill some of the missing episodes from Arcainum's season 1 series. I've gotten permission from him to do this. I also asked him if he wanted me to change the title a little to avoid confusion, but he allowed this as well. I did, however, add in the description that this is filling in missing season 1 episodes, so thank you for that. I hope this will avoid further confusion.

I applaud you my good sir, with work like this it may just drive grammar nazis like me out of a job! Least I can't find any so far... I have no imagination to use ANY of the lines in MLP to fit!!!! Now we only have like... umm... 15 episodes to fill? Was it more or less?

Alright, got that out of my system now. :) Very well done! Nice touch with Trixie pulling out Rarity's "Afraid to get dirty?" line, and the epilogue with Celestia and Blueblood was cute. His "political espionage" line makes me wonder, was he actually working for Celestia the whole time, to spy on Luna's operations?

Not really. He was just looking for a change in scene. Plus, I liked the idea that Celestia wasn't too concerned, just curious. She's good at making us all wonder just what's going on in her mind at times.

BUT, if Arcainum says otherwise, then follow what he says. Any flubs in his world are entirely mine and his word is God.

490257Thanks! It was a lot of fun and I thank Arcainum for letting me play around in his world for a bit. I've got more ideas for episodes, so there may be more down the line.

Truly. I think that the differences between your styles is like differentiating between 2 different brands of potato chips. Though I think that last chapter in the original fic has moved into Barbecue flavor range. Regardless your take on this episode gives us one more closed gap in the void. Thank you.

And they are read! That only took like three months. Starting with the compliments, there were a number of really great little character moments that were my favorite parts. You got the Lyra and Bon-Bon dynamic well with the "Whaddya want to do" and "They ate my Megacello!" scenes; Derpy being utterly nonplussed by getting caught in the door; everything Blueblood did. Using Blueblood and robo-parasprites as premises also worked out really well.

On the other hand, I can't say anything ever captured that Harpflank and Sweets dialed to eleven feeling that makes the series so great. It seemed like it only got to an eight or nine. I guess it's a little difficult writing in someone else's canon and trying not break anything, but next time try to find a moment that makes you think "Yes I am really going through with this," and after that, keep going. And I do hope you'll be writing a next time, these are good.

901472Dialed to eleven, huh? I'll have to think about that for next time. I did have a few things that I said to myself, "These have to go in here!" but it looks like they weren't as awesome as I envisioned in my head.

Arcainum is the master and I can only hope to be his lowly apprentice. I'm just glad he allowed me to get away with as much as I did.

1279535Thanks! It was a lot of fun and Arcainum's world leaves plenty to work with.

1279591Thanks again! I do have an idea for a new episode, but it's kinda on the back-burner at the moment as I have a joint project going that needs to get finished first. Afterwards, I'll see if I can crank out a new episode.

Before each night is done,They'll give their plan a whirl.By the time Trixie finds them,They'll have impressed that girl.They're Snips and Snails,Yes, Snips and Snails.Their moonlight campaign,Is easy to explain.To make their boss less snappy,They'll make Trixie happy!They're wimps,They're Snips and Snail Snail Snail Snail Snail Snail Snail Snail (narf)!

See, after seeing Vinyl and Octavia's dismissals of Snips and Snails, who were only trying to convey a vital bit of information ('cuz lets face it. You know that gun exploded moments after they dismissed them)... all I can think is that i'd love to see some kind of 'government inspector criticizes everything' episode in which that scene is used against them.

...What? They were being jerks in general, and Octavia especially there.

2543432Not sure. They haven't appeared in Season 2 from what I can recall. I'd have to bug Arcainum on that. My guess is that when Trixie moved over to M.A.R.E., she brought over Snips and Snails as her personal cheerleading section.
